can anyone help is this a normal result!!! or give any advice

Hi, The problem in only testing the TSH is that it does not show the actual circulating thyroid hormones. It is only a pituitary response. There has been some ongoing debate about the TSH not being a good test for severity of tissue hypothyroidism.

You actually need to get thyroid antibodies tests, and the Ft4 and Ft3 tests. This will show if you have a thyroid disorder. If your doctor refuses, then order your own at HealthcheckUSA.

Yes, Jacqui, you do seem to have hypoT symptoms. Get those free thyroid hormone levels done.

You may want to start looking around, networking to find a new doc. The best docs look at a much larger picture than just TSH. They consider your symptoms, your whole thyroid picture, and the interaction of your thyroid with other endocrine glands.
